Holly storing

(1/2) > >>

crazylegs:
Got an offer of some fresh cut holly. How should I approach storing it? I know it cracks at any and every opportunity. My last lot told me this!!

Lazurus:
My last batch was planked into 2" boards sealed and put in stick in an outside covered wood store, about 60% is useable. I think it is just the nature of holly!

Tim Pettigrew:
Have just had excellent results coating with Endseal. MUCH better than coating with PVA (which I did with some of it to compare).

crazylegs:
Should I leave it in log form or split them? I do not want to plank it but want bowl blanks.

seventhdevil:
if you want bowls from it then rough turn the lot immediately and then completely seal the blanks for a couple of years...
